Who are you? There are so many answers to that question. We wear many titles. For me, I am wife, mom, daughter, sister, aunt. I am a nurse and currently an entrepreneur. I am a coach and a friend. I could also add titles that I never wanted to wear. Titles like divorced. Abuse survivor….
“Do not remember the former things, Nor consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing, Now it shall spring forth; Shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness And rivers in the desert. Isaiah 43:18-19 A new year is upon us. Let’s be honest: I…
Can you believe Thanksgiving is next week? I have no idea what has happened to this year. I have actually been taking a little break from my blogging as I try to take a deep breath and get my feet underneath me again. I am beyond exhausted. And dry. And burned out. I feel like…
It’s time to make it official! It is time to announce the launch of my life coaching business! I have been slowly and methodically plugging away at my masters degree in life coaching. I still have a few classes left, but I have finished enough courses to now be a member of the American Association…
I was born an organized, detail-oriented, planner. Literally. My mom was unconscious for five days after I was born. By the time my mom and I were stable enough to come home, the nurses had me on a strict schedule. I would take a bottle and go to bed at 10:00 pm, and I would…
There’s a movie called, “The Gods Must Be Crazy.” I can’t say I have ever watched the movie, but there are times I feel that way about my God. Have you ever really looked at the things God asked people to do? He told Noah to build a huge boat because He was going to…
2016. It is definitely a year I won’t forget. Death. Illness. Surgery. Financial struggles. New relationship. And kittens. Yes, kittens. Several months ago, I told you about our cat, Tigresse. She was one of a kind. She was our gopher hunting, mouse killing, door opening four-year-old cat. But, I use the term “was.” Back in…
I am locked in a prison of silence. Yes, as I write this post, I am on day ten of laryngitis. It seems to be a semi-annual affair for me. One minute I am fine; the next, my voice is faint, high-pitched, and very, very squeaky. I’ve been told that I sound like Minnie Mouse…
Good Monday morning! I just wanted to take a moment and share a couple of things with you, my wonderful friends! First, I want to say a huge THANK YOU! I am humbled and amazed that you have all chosen to join me on this journey. When I started this blog in a moment of…
I am single…and hating it! I’m sure there are many singles who would say they hate it. They would tell about the loneliness. They might tell you how they long to have someone with whom to share their hopes and dreams. Or, maybe they would talk about the longing for a companion, someone with whom…
Many people on Facebook choose to keep a daily log of things for which they are thankful during the month of November. Rather than putting mine on Facebook, I thought I would provide a list of things for which my heart overflows with gratitude. Kids—Where would I be without my amazing children? They are truly…
I shared this post several months ago after I ran my first half marathon. This weekend, however, I found myself reflecting on this post. You see, I have had an extremely difficult weekend filled with doubts and fears–doubts that God will do what He has said He will do for me. He keeps telling me…
